"So here I am today, eighty-five years old! I am still as strong today as the day Moses sent me out; I'm just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then. Now give me this hill country that the LORD promised me that day. You yourself heard then that the Anakites were there and their cities were large and fortified, but, the LORD helping me, I will drive them out just as he said." - Caleb (Joshua 14:10-12 ).We are never too old to serve the Lord. Caleb, forty-five years earlier, was one of the twelve spies Moses sent to spy out the Promised Land and one of the two who came back with a glowing report. At age eighty-five he still wants to serve the Lord.Admittedly, folks lived much older back then but no matter how old we are (except for extenuating circumstances), we are never too old to serve the Lord—even if all we can do is pray.When it comes to achieving anything worthwhile (especially serving God), it is availability—not age-ability—that counts.Prayer: "Our Loving Father in Heaven, I'm available, please make me usable and use me every day in some way to be a part of what you are doing in the world today. Give us the thirst to sever for your Kingdom. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, In Jesus Loving Name I Pray, Amen."Have a Blessed Wednesday and God Bless you.Courtesy : Daily Dose Devotionals Team

One of the purposes of the Word of God is to equip us to be the overcomers that Christ died for us to be. In Romans 12:12 , the apostle Paul describes ways of living above our circumstances, no matter what we may be facing. He says: "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."

"Be joyful in hope." This means that, no matter what is going on around us, and no matter where we are at the time, we are constantly looking ahead. The Living Bible translation says: "Be glad for all God is planning for you." As followers of Christ, we are never without hope. We know that even if our circumstances seem negative now, brighter days are up ahead for us. Why? Because God is a good God, and His love for us is everlasting and unfailing. The psalmist wrote: "Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for …

" So Moses, the servant of the LORD, died there in the land of Moab, just as the LORD had said.The LORD buried him in a valley near Beth-peor in Moab, but to this day no one knows the exact place." - Deuteronomy 34:5-6ENCOURAGING WORD: Making Use of What You Have "What is that in your hand?" God asked Moses. - (Exodus 4:2). At the close of World War II, Jimmy Durante, the famous comedian, was invited to entertain wounded soldiers at a veteran's hospital. He said he would be able to do only one very short routine as he had two radio shows to do that day. The man who invited him was amazed when Durante didn't rush off but gave three complete routines. "Why did you stay so long," the man asked, "you've probably missed your radio shows?" Durante answered, "Look at the men and you wi…

ANSWER:ENOCHHebrews 11:5 - "Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him."ENCOURAGING WORD:The Bible tells us that Enoch was a man who walked with God. He must have developed a very close relationship with God because he didn't die God chose to take him directly to heaven. Enoch was a man of faith and truly a godly hero.(Genesis 5:21-24)

If he were living today, Enoch's press clippings would not be impressive. His testimony probably would not attract thousands to a citywide crusade. It is unlikely he would sign a book contract or be a TV attraction. However, as a godly hero, he did have an adventurous life. He had the best of the bestintimate fellowship with God.

************************************************************************************************************************ANSWER:"If God is for us, who can be against us?"- Romans 8:31ENCOURAGING WORD:If God is for us, who can be against us?"What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31

If you really believe in Jesus Christ and you have made Him Lord and Savior of your life, you must have confidence in Romans 8:31. God loves us! Stay strong in the Scripture and prayer as you strive to live a life worthy of the calling. Romans 5:3 says, "We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials for we know that they are good for us—they help us learn to be patient."

Remember, though, that the things that bug us don't cause our impatience, they just trigger it! And that's what God wants to get us to face and fix. He wants to fix us from the inside out so that we will learn both patience and e…
